Welcome back to The TEFLology Podcast - a podcast all about teaching English as a foreign language and related matters.
In today’s episode we get to grips with language assessment and testing, and are pleased to be joined by Dr Talia Issacs.
Talia principally works as associate professor of Applied Linguistics and TESOL in the Culture, Communication, and Media department at University College London’s Institute of Education. She’s also involved with leading assessment and consultancy projects on assessment and communication and regularly serves in an advisory role for different educational stakeholder groups both locally and internationally. Her research interests include second language acquisition, higher education, speech sciences, psychology, medicine, and language assessment - the topic of today’s episode.
Enjoy the episode!
